According to our record player expert
The Pro-Ject DEBUT III (OM5e) is a record player with an aluminum arm and an Ortofon assembled element. With the OM5e element, you'll listen to high-resolution audio. Connect it to an amplifier with a phono input using an RCA cable. The heavy, metal turntable and the steel leg stands increase durability and prevent resonance. This way, you'll have listening pleasure without white noise. Place the included hood over the player, so your vinyl remains dust free.

Excellent device. Very solid, heavy turntable, even spinning does not let it skip, while the crockery is rattling in the same cupboard (flat, washing machine is nearby). The supplied needle is fantastic to me as a vinyl layman.
I came across a few things while assembling that are not entirely clear in the manual. In particular, placing the counterweight (which is loose in the box, in the styrofoam, not with the rest of the parts, but this is well mentioned in the manual, read it completely!) and the "anti-skating weight ' raised some questions. The description is almost higher math on scales that aren't on the materials, but I ended up doing it by feel and it works fine.
Mind you, there is no auto-stop, but that anti-skating weight ensures that the needle does not jump or overshoot the paper. In addition, changing 33/45 rpm requires the turntable to be removed!

Product just looks nice and works very accurately. Everything manually, but that has something. Upgrade element is recommended. 1 step higher (OM10) is already a good improvement. Opted for an OM20 myself, it is expensive compared to the purchase price, but you also have something. User manual is not much. Should the transport screws be removed or not? It is not referred to in the supplied instruction manual. English manual (internet) again. I've removed them anyway but haven't noticed any change.
